We enter the Great Hall and sit at the Slytherin table, and then Professor McGonagall starts up the sorting ceremony for the first years. Bianca, Olivia, and I share jokes and apparently they already have gossip. My laughter dies down as I see Draco looking smug and strutting down the Great Hall.

"Malfoys.." I hear Adrian say, with an eye roll. I look around to see if anyone else heard but they were too fixated on the sorting.

"SLYTHERIN!" The Sorting Hat yells, and Draco starts coming over the Slytherin table with a smug smile. I knew that he was going to be in Slytherin, but that means that I'm going to have family lingering around. So much for family get away.

"Looks like you're going to have a puppy following you around, Malfoy."

"Shut up Flint." I give him an eye roll.

"Well— do you guys want to join the party Olivia and I are hosting in the Slytherin common room tonight?" Bianca said.
"Party?" Draco butts into the conversation, "What for?" This grabbed Crabbe, Goyle, and Parkinson's attention. Bianca cleared her throat and said, "Well it's for a welcome BACK to Hogwarts party, not a welcome TO Hogwarts party." "Sorry little ones."
"Whatever, it's probably a lame party anyway since you invited my sister."
"Hey! I'm the life of the party, I was actually in charge of bringing the drinks and I did."
"You stole from father's cabinet?!" Draco asked, being frantic, and Olivia butted in, "Scared of Lucius Malfoy, Draco? Stop being such a ferret." The whole table laughed, even Crabbe and Goyle did, but Parkinson kept giving glares to Olivia. "Yeah, so what if I did? I'm not scared of Lucius," I said. Out of the corner of my eye, I can see Adrian giving a shocked look, like what I said was unexpected for him.

       Draco stood up and went up to Professor Snape, I can see both of them eyeing me down. But, I think I have an idea why, Draco tattled. Though Draco was still rambling about me, Snape got up and ignored Draco, heading towards my table.
"You are to stay back and clean down the tables after the feast." Snape said,
"What? Why?!" I complained, I cannot be late to the party. I'm not gonna let 11 year old Draco get away with this.
"I think you can figure that out Ms. Malfoy." Snape said, as he dramatically turns around, getting lightly hit by his long, raven black, cloak.

"We can delay the party for you Veronica," Bianca reassures. But it felt so wrong to do that, it was a small sibling fight and I'm not gonna delay a huge party just because of me.
"No, it's fine, go on ahead. I'll be quick about it, I have my wand."
Only if I knew.

       As everyone left the Great Hall, it was only Snape and I in the huge echoing room. Snape walked over to me, but still keeping his huge personal space. His steps echoed throughout the hall and he began explaining what to do during this "detention".
"You will not use your wand while cleaning down the tables."
"Ugh."
"What was that?" Snape asks, acting like a small sound affected his feelings, "Get to work." He walked out of the Great Hall and I began wetting the sponge.

       Luckily there wasn't a food fight this year, usually there is and it's always the second years. They think after a year of being at Hogwarts they can rule the whole school. Trust me, you cant.
"What the hell is this crap??" I look down at a sticky substance that I found on a chair.
I roll my eyes, "6th years."

"Ahem." Snape cleared his throat. I jumped a bit, I didn't realize he was there.
"Mr. Pucey will be joining you," Snape said,
Adrian Pucey?
Adrian walked into the Great Hall, having cuts around his face and arm.
